Students perform transformations and translations using polygons. In this geometry lesson, students perform transformations on a coordinate plane. They identify the image and pre-image of each figure.

Students perform transformations on their graphs. In this algebra lesson, students identify the pre-image and image. They find and identify congruent shapes and isometry.

High schoolers define and identify transformation and rotation. In this geometry instructional activity, students define rotations as congruence or isometry. They find the coordinates of an image and pre-image.

Students calculate area, perimeter and length of rectangles. In this geometry lesson, students create different formulas for the problem they are being asked to solve. They use the navigator to move the shape around and make observations.

Mathematicians use a symmetric secant line to prove the derivative at a point. In this trigonometry lesson, high schoolers create secant lines on the navigator to analyze the derivative. They move the lines around and make observations.

Students factor trinomials. In this algebra lesson plan, students identify the different integers making up the trinomial and use the special pattern to factor them. They continue to model the equations and how to factor correctly.

Students define exponential functions and graph the equation. In this algebra lesson, students discuss exponential growth and decay as they graph their functions. They differentiate between the base of growth and decay.

Learners use sliders to change the parameters of functions and examine how shifting parameters affects a graph. They identify the parameters of functions, find vertical and horizontal stretches, then calculate the scale factor and other...

Students memorize the words to a teacher selected poem. They produce an audio recording of the poem. They create a new verse for the poem. They create a visual representation of the poem.

Explore slope using geometric patterns. Young mathematicians investigate towers built from cubes to develop a linear pattern. They move the data to a coordinate plane to connect the pattern to slopes.

Students read and discuss Romeo and Juliet Act IV, Scenes 1 and 2. They compare the unfolding action with yesterday's predictions. They consider the concepts of trust, fate, and self-determination.
